Patterns and Mechanisms
** Edition of 300 ** "Patterns and Mechanisms", Eraldo Bernocchi and Merzbow's first album together, was written and recorded during the lockdown. Both artists exchanged audio files and ideas fascinated by the phenomenon of urban wildlife where wild animals decide to relocate, or establish home in our cities, the album is just two long pieces. Despite being dense and noisy, "Patterns and Mechanisms" has a 'melodic' approach to composition, with Merzbow's noise assault conjugating with Bernocchi'…
Tertium Quid
*200 copies limited edition* Exactly two years after “They Cast No Shadows” comes “Tertium Quid”, third CD from the LHAM project headed by Bruno De Angelis (Mana ERG) and Giuseppe Verticchio (Nimh) which once again leads the listener through complex and enthralling instrumental sound textures.

Slow Dances And Still Memories
Slow Dances and Still Memories is the convergence of two musicians from distinct generations, Andrea Bellucci & Giulio Aldinucci — a languid waltz of fragmented memories and fleeting emotions, tied to moments in life, whether they arise from a dancefloor or a remote rural setting, from the hum of the night or the stillness of silence. Electronics here functions much like time itself: they blurs, distorts, reshapes, and subtly deceives memory… A choreography of ancient voices that intertwine in t…
Atti Innaturali
* Limited edition of 200 copies.* Simon Balestrazzi’s new effort make use of a rather sparse instrumentation. The prepared strings of a battered Ukrainian tsymbaly (a percussion-stringed instrument similar to the hammered dulcimer) are excited with an eBow and only occasionally struck. Also they are processed in real time through a ring modulator, a digital spectral delay and a looper, stretching the sonic possibilities in an unnatural way. This iridescent mass, sometimes rich in abrasive clatte…
The Dead End Road
*200 copies limited edition* The road does not end: it abandons us, and in its abandonment it invites us to pause, listen, and wander within what cannot be possessed, only perceived. "The Dead End Road" is a journey along a road that leads nowhere, immersed in dark and suspended atmospheres - a path that leaves us alone with our listening. Through field recordings and electroacoustic textures, sounds emerge, dissolve, and recombine in restless spaces, between memory and presence. Each track is a…
Further Opinions about Death
*200 copies limited edition* This is the second collaborative album between Matteo Uggeri (based in Milan) and Andrea Bellucci (from La Spezia). Their first work, "The Soundtrack of Your Secrets", was developed amid the well-known challenges of the pandemic, between 2020 and 2022. The last song of that album was titled “Opinions about Death”. Afterward, Matteo faced an even more difficult period in his life, accompanying his mother through her final days after a long illness that had lasted sinc…
American Requiem
*200 copies limited edition* The series of double albums by Gianluca Becuzzi for St.An.Da/Silentes, which began in 2020 with "In Between", continues. Like its predecessors, "American Requiem" combines drone guitar with sacred themes, creating compositions with a dark and captivating mood.

Una Notte Che Non Finisce Mai
** CD + 21x21cm 48-page booklet in Italian, ltd. 200 copies ** "It often happens that crime stories are able to influence the larger history that surrounds them, but very few are those that managed to change aspects of society and pass through more than five decades unharmed, at least in terms of fascination. The whole story of the Monster of Florence is one of them. It is impossible not to get entangled or at least to be captured by it, if one delves into its pages of far-fetched features and t…

ANOK4U2 (Book)
"As you may know if you move in certain circles, Crass was a collective of English punks active between the late 1970s and 1984. Some of them had long been involved in certain creative fringes of the hippie movement in the previous decade. Anarchists and pacifists, they didn't have an easy life: from the very beginning, they had to fight hard to avoid being silenced. In 1985, they were labeled "an association operating on the fringes of the law" and convicted in court for producing "material con…
Nel cuore della bestia (Book)
*Please note that this book is available in Italian language only.* "The authors are one of the founders of Franti, the other since the early 1980s a fanzinista and then a reporter for A/Rivista Anarchica from the trenches of punk and self-production. Our names are Stefano Giaccone and Marco Pandin. Each of us, in his or her own way, dreamed of a revolution in the 1970s and 1980s: sure, we were young and these were things that were nice to do and needed to be done. Almost thirty years ago we col…
Le tre opere (Book)
*Bilingual English-Italian* "Put your music group together. Paint your own picture. Write your own book, your own poem."
These are original English texts and Italian translations by American Mike Watt, born in 1957. You should already know the author, or at least I hope you do: he is one of those who were there in California to light the fuse under the ass of rock in the late 1970s and the early 1980s. He played bass with the Minutemen, and it was partly because of him and his band that the punk…
